Recruiters gain access to a large pool of startup-ready candidates and tools like an AI-powered recruiter to simplify the hiring process. Wellfound specializes in unique jobs at innovative companies, making it a popular platform for both talent and startups looking for growth.

Meet Wellfound

Wellfound started as AngelList Talent and became a top platform for startups to find talent. It was among the first to show salary and equity details in job listings. As part of the AngelList ecosystem, it also offers startup investment tools.

"One of Wellfound's recent iterations is RecruiterCloud, an AI-driven recruiting tool that offers companies instant access to over 500M startup-ready candidates. The tool, combined with their internal expert recruiters, calibrates a hyper-personalized sourcing experience that removes all the friction, then finds & books talent on your calendar in a matter of days. It's hiring, without the hassle." CEO Amit Matani shared his thoughts on RecruiterCloud's launch:

At Wellfound, we believe the right team can change the world. It's been our mission to remove the frictions getting in the way of finding each other. Our goal is to bring the best possible recruiting products to startups and startup talent.

We've made an impact. Our job marketplace has facilitated over 100k hires at startups all over the world! But, recruiting still takes a lot of work.

Today, we're changing that with the early release of RecruiterCloud. Using AI and our proprietary data we've built a recruiting process that feels effortless.

We've already helped several teams save 20+ hours a week, drive 5x more calls, and make multiple hires. I'm super proud of the work the team has put in over the last year.
